CrowdWater
The aim of the CrowdWater game is to check and if needed improve the quality of water level class measurements from the Spotteron app CrowdWater. Compare the water level of two pictures and estimate a water level class on computer or tablet to have the chance to win great prizes during each championship. The game is run by researchers at the University of Zurich and is implemented by Spotteron. The CrowdWater project is funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation
